11/10 for excellent trollbait.
Move this shit to the Manno forums, because this is Manno forum caliber, from the initial trollbait, to the flame war, to the continuous tidbits that keep spurring the flaming on. Sheer hilarity, thanks. If you're not trolling you're a fucking moron, because everything about this site throws Rome right in your face. Not just a fucking moron... an ignorant fucking moron. But I'm pretty sure you're trolling, so gg thanks for making laggy BWL more enjoyable, and grats on managing to bait so many members of this fine guild into a frenzy. I'm especially fond of that feigned air of hurt that you've established in your latter posts, as if your question was in perfect innocence and you cannot begin to fathom why it was met with such rage. If you honestly think that asking someone "Hey are you a Nazi!!!" isn't offensive (and apologizing beforehand is bullshit, and doesn't at all lessen the insult), you are truly an ignorant person. I invite you to go over to Germany right now, and ask randomly on the streets, "Hey are you a a Nazi!!! I don't mean to insult you, but you are German, and Hitler based the Nazi movement in Germany, so umm... ARE YOU NAZIS??!!" Taking bets from Legionnaires how long he would last. |

2) What do "big words" have to do with anything? Terribly sorry I've impressed you. 3) Because more than just a direct answer was being sought. |
nothing i should add here... im open for a discussion any time about this....
i like it to educate ppl about the history of the third reich, symbols of the SS and so on... its kinda sad that i only hear accusations like that from ppl who live in countries that didnt suffer under the nazi regime probably a lack of education.... ww2 doesnt have priority in their school system, its more important to know about the pilgrim fathers..... |
Gravitas, do you ever think "- I'm an idiot and I need to wake up" ?
It's one thing to ask an innocent question but there are limits to stupidity, or at least I thought so until I read this. |

This part of Tiddys post was pretty to the point, too bad you didn't bother responding to it outside of the ad hominem, but I guess the rule of not using those only applies to others?

I will address Tiddy's post, however, just to settle your burning inquiry of why it was conceived by a half-wit. Quote:
And I knew that as soon as I mentioned my Jewish heritage, at least one person would start cramming words into my mouth. If you backtrack, my specific language nowhere states or implies exclusivity. Quote:

You know something is right with the guild when we get trolls on our personal forums!
|
By the way, just to clarify: anyone's who's taken High School English knows there are two kinds of symbols: public and personal. So all those scenarios people put forth of having me freak out wherever I see an eagle do not apply. The American Eagle is a symbol whose meaning is known widely (although nowadays its nobler cast seems to be wearing off). When it comes to the symbols created by marginal people playing videos games centered on prejudice and warfare (some of which even allow the playing of Axis forces, a preference of this guild that someone alluded to earlier), one can never be too sure.
The sad aspect of this thread is that my question was answered clearly, calmly, and rationally, in the first response. Thank you Rids. |

lol Empy, your the exception to the rule hon. Be glad you were not part of my old XWA squad. We made fun of Canadians forever :( But it was all in fun, heh i run with some Vancouver CS players right now. Now if you take me seriously again when im feeding the troll, I will have to take drastic measures. |
Can we schedule another post of feigned ignorance for next tuesday during server down? Most of us are bored at that time, and we can surely hit 10 pages much faster then today.
|
Hmmm.. should I feed the troll in showing the flaw in his last arguement? I think I won't, because I can get more postcount from not answering right away...
+postcount. Gotta get my golden star, and keep Val busy at work reading the forums! The real sad aspect is, even though you were interested in knowing what Legion's symbol and motto stands for (Which, for my case, I spent about 30 minute googleing to get my answer before I apped to VtS and got all the answers i needed back in the day), you went probably the worst possible way to get the answer, angering the whole community in the process. |

Some of you may ask why I am quoting this particular reply, well, the reason is simple. This whole thread, is a debate of symbolism, and what, The Legion, our guild, our online home, represents. We have someone making, what he claims to be an simple question, but also, in the same thread, fore-saw the fact that he would not be accepted into this guild. How can you ask this sort of question already foreseeing the outcome? You say you simply must know. Honestly though, shouldn't you have done a bit more research. Even if it were only reading the few posts you had access to? If you ask me, this post I have quoted, is by far, the most educated in the thread I've read. Yes, there have been numerous references to Ancient Rome, and Hilter's adaptation on similar foundations, but, this is what it boils down to. No. I'm not Jewish. No, The Nazi Regime did not have any immediate effect on me personally, but it had an effect on my family. I am Canadian, as you can see in my avatar just left of my post. I also know it had an effect on Whaambulance's family, who lives one floor above me in my apartment building. In fact, I could almost say it had an effect on pretty much everyone living in my apartment building. This whole thing, although it may have started as Nazi versus the Jewish People, involed, at the time, a large portion of the semi-large powers of the world. Hence, this war, was dubbed, World War II. This whole occurance didn't just effect two groups of people. This effected a majority of the worlds population. This effected EVERY SINGLE PERSON who fought in this war. This effect, was cause by numerous Countries fighting for the lives of other human beings, in this case, your Ancestors. Taking these factors into mind. You can rightingly assume that anyone knowing what happened in that time would absolutely dispise what the Nazi's stood for and believed in, in a group of people as large as ours. I'm not saying that the original post was unjustified in his questioning, but, a little bit of common sense, a bit of thought, before a "knee-jerk" reaction, you would have realize that the question you were asking was completely out of place. Although the people of this Online Gaming community can have our differences, and can show a bit of anominity towards each other from time to time, we are a guild that not only respect our members, but also everyone else that we encounter in our gaming endevours. I know you said you did moderate research before posting. Moderate to me is a little bit, a little bit converts to a slight idea... And well, a slight idea, isn't something you want to make a post about when it comes to something of this significance. |

"Well, we use the eagle under its public meaning too! It confers the might of Rome upon us!" What do you describe a symbol with multiple public connotations adopted for private use as though? It's a still a matter of deciphering which public connotation is being adopted, and so in this sense it's still the context which lends the symbol it's meaning, prefabricated or not-- hence, my original inquiry. And hence, I still won't freak whenever I spot an eagle. |
